It’s clear from Darwin’s own writings—he was a conflicted, tormented soul who was eaten alive by his own doctrines. In that sense, he’s like all the other false teachers who have popped up throughout history.

There will be more to say about this later, but let me pose the question John asked for discussion: “Why would we want to join forces with those whose effort is directly against the authority of the God of Scripture?”

Now, to be clear, no true Christian sympathizes with Darwin’s disdain for divine authority. Why then do so many Christians feel the need to acquiesce to the demands of a system with such anti-God, anti-Christian beginnings?
